"Relax, feel the calm sensations through your body. And when you're ready, ease yourself back. Begin by wiggling your toes then your fingers. Take a deep breath and stretch your arms over your head. Take up space on your mat as you stretch your arms back before rolling up into a sitting position. Bring your hands to your heart once more and exhale. Namaste."

The Therapeutic Nature Of Art
Hi, This is going to be my first (and hopefully not last) post on Vocal, and I wanted the topic be something which I can talk a lot about over a long period of time and over various posts, as there is so much I can say. I had a few ideas in mind, but I ended up settling on this : "The Therapeutic Nature Of Art". A bit weird sounding I know, but also very true. So, if you will, let me explain.

A Creative Space That Brings Happiness and Challenge
I have developed an interest in making bead chains at a later stage in my life. My husband fancies bead chains and he gets eager to research the bead’s history when he sees it. He totally admires a bead by the way he holds it and carefully turns it around to explore its sphere. One Christmas I was looking for a gift for him, and I wanted to give him something special that he will fancy and keep for life. I found very special hand-painted beads that were black with colorful Asian designs. And that’s when I made my first beads chain.

Let It Out
I’ve decided that life is about moments of happiness. I don’t know about you, but I don’t know if it’s possible to be happy for longer than a moment. I don’t think I’ve experienced it and perhaps I never will. That’s okay. I’ve found solace in the little moments. Since I was a teenager, a lot of those little moments have existed when I’m painting. There is so much comfort in creating a piece that represents exactly where you are right now. Paint doesn’t judge, it doesn’t talk back, it doesn’t tell you to get over it or talk about itself instead. It allows you to feel all you need to feel and maneuver your way through the fog at your own pace.

Weaving Dreams
Weaving and cutting, threads not matching up correctly as a knot is tied, though I will not start over. A metal frame, colored string crisscrossing across empty space, pull tight, tie a knot, cut, keep going. Gifts are best when they are made by hand, no matter what they are. Something from the heart and sprinkled with a little soul. Another loose thread cut and removed from the rest of the others, and I admire my work. There are a few crooked knots, though that’s alright. Imperfections make art, and humans themselves are art because of their imperfections, and as art often is a gift, so is human life.

Pouring My Hart Out
The very first thing I do is use my trusty scissors to cut my canvas before stretching it around a wood frame nice and tight. Then stabling it so it stays nice and tight.Making your own canvases is the best since you can make it whatever size you please.

The Art of Paper Hearts
It takes a combination of perfection, patience, matching corners, and running fingernails along neatly folded paper edges to create a work of origami. The repetition is soothing, the same movements over and over until the pattern is burned into my brain and my fingers perform the task on command. I practice valley folds, mountain folds, and square folds until they are perfect. By the time the sun sets, I am surrounded by a multitude of butterflies, foxes, frogs, and cranes. Nowadays, I find myself only occasionally reaching for my almost rusted scissors in a desperate attempt to salvage a mangled paper square.
